Walk the Distance for Health Poverty Action
Step into the shoes of real health workers saving lives in Myanmar.
Every year, a dedicated team of health workers in Kachin State, Myanmar, treks for over two weeks—sometimes walking up to 8 hours a day—to deliver lifesaving vaccinations to people in remote communities. Now, you can follow in their footsteps virtually and raise funds to support their work.
How It Works
Walk the Virtual Route – We’ve partnered with Walk the Distance, an app that syncs with Apple Health, or Android Health to track your real-world steps and move your virtual avatar along the Kachin State health worker route.
Fundraise as You Go – We’ll help you set up a personal fundraising page where friends, family, and colleagues can sponsor your journey as you take on this incredible challenge.
Make Every Step Count – With every mile you walk, you’re helping to fund essential healthcare, medical supplies, and vaccines for people in hard-to-reach areas.
